I defeated the mage tower tonight. My thoughts

First off, yes I know Covenants are disabled.

Secondly, templates are indeed applied as to normalize player gear so that someone who is at 250+ item level doesn’t necessarily have a significant advantage over someone who might try the same challenge that is 200 item level. Blizzard even mentioned they were going to use the template system as a way to normalize the challenge.

Lastly, I never said bears could pump damage. I simply disagreed with someone who said we are the lowest damage tank; nothing more. Stop trolling and twisting words that were as clear as the day is bright.

Bruh you were literally the one crying about your work being erased or something.

Better beat it with a nerf bat until it is black and blue.

This was by all accounts advertised as something the average player could do and thus why the old Artifact appearances weren’t included because it was going to be more accessible for the average player as well as being easier due to the limited time frame it was available.

Many people were ready to resub for some filler content mogs but all this is doing is killing guild rosters even more from people jaded by the terrible 9.2 plot coming out on ptr. Which P.S. to pass along to the art team, adding a band doesn’t make the warlock tier look any less racist, bend the point or change the color.

No…seems you have difficulty comprehending… Well after legion classes were nerfed and gimped. Corruption in BFA fixed some classes a d made them viable due to corruptions.
Since their removal many classes have not been repaired to fix areas they are lackluster thus placed into this MT scenario without borrowed power the class spec dysfunctions are blazingly obvious that its extreamly difficult for some specs more then others to succeed in this place since they need those crutches to do well.

Robokappa is a troll. He even said he has no desire to do any of the challenges this time around. As seen in the following thread

Here is me trying to do uh dk one, on burst i can do around 1.4 with my scaled down gear and on average 600. Now saw other 2 dks in full mystic doing 2.8 on burst and 1.2 on average…
How the @@@@ that scaling works ?

What spec did you finish it in? WW?

Good, conversation over, don’t ever bring it up as if it makes any difference.

No, they are not. There are no templates in TW. Your gear is just scaled down to ilvl 50 if it’s over ilvl 50 to begin with.

You are scaled so sometimes other gear will have higher damage. Your stat prioirity is different. Also not all gear is scaled equally. Sockets have more value in timewalking. So if you didn’t add sockets to your gear you are missing out on huge damage.

Please extend the time walking event!

thank you, for your lovely introduction. I hope you weren’t expecting compensation.

Planning on completing the other two specs but why bother now

This. While I do think some numbers should be rolled back a touch this type of challenging content is very welcome for me at least. But a two weeks time limit barely gives me time to learn the fight given that I don’t get to play wow every day.

I love that it’s difficult… I’ve only done two of the challenges with Arms and MM, but I was looking forward to having a tough time with the other 5. if you’re going to make it easier, nerf the mop gear alongside it please. This needs to be challenging! Hell I’d rather you buff the encounters that are being completed too quickly. Mage tower was significantly less cool by the end of legion. There was no prestige. If it feels impossible, it isn’t! Perfect play gives great rewards.

Yes please :relaxed:

So…blue post in this thread is a lie…they just did a hot fix post and guess what…

Surv Hunter got nerfed (not the fight but the hunter) for having things in kit to make it easier, as did NF DK who were getting some covenant procs on death and decay too

Those were clearly unintended bugs lol, the blue post is refering to balancing for some specs.

Try doing the guardian bear fight without leggos for burst.

Monk, pally, dh, dk, and warriors all have burst.
